Before you start the installation, make the program you want to add or drivers for the device you are installing available either through a local external USB flash/hard disk drive, CD/DVD or a mapped network shared drive. DO NOT COPY TO THE C: DRIVE or ANY LOCAL DRIVE. External USB Flash drive is recommended for temporary storage.

Procedure:

Plug in the external USB drive and logoff from the thin client as “User”

Login as “Administrator” (Press shift and click “log off”. This will allow you to log in as a local administrator. Default password for administrator is Wyse#123) Please bear in mind that keyboard might be set to American layout in which case you’ll need to hold shift + 3 to do # symbol

Verify that the File based writer filter is disabled. If not, click on the “FBWF Disable” icon, restart TC and login again as Administrator.

Go the “Start > Settings > Control Panel” and double-click on the “Ramdisk” icon.

Change the value from 16Mb to 64MB (you may have to increase this to a higher value depending on your application) and click “OK”. Do not set the value to 100MB.

Reboot the Thin Client for the Ram disk value to change

Login as Administrator

Go the “Start > Settings > Control Panel” and double-click on the “System” icon

For WES7 you will need to select from the left pane “Advanced system settings” first, select the “Advanced” tab and click on the “Environmental Variables…” button.

Select the “TEMP” variable and click on the “Edit” button

Change the “Variable value” from “Z:\” to “X:\” (where “X” is the drive letter of your external USB drive) and press “OK”

Select the “TMP” variable and click on the Edit button

Change the “Variable Value” from “Z:\” to “X:\” (where “X” is the drive letter of your external USB drive) and press “OK”

Dont like Adverts

I know the adverts are annoying but I only use them to pay for hosting. If you find any of my posts useful then I’d really appreciate it if you could disable your ad-blocker and click a advert of two.
Or if not then you could buy me a coffee?
Thanks
